On May 5, 2024, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, join May Gallery artist Rose Covert, in a sculptural weaving class. Participants will use beginning basketry techniques including plaiting and twining to start their weave and then will explore using random weave to create a small woven form. Random weave is a freeform weaving style that allows for creative freedom resulting in a unique and interesting design.

Using hand-harvested and locally grown barks to weave into the basketry reed, this workshop will focus on the fundamentals of natural materials and mixed media fiber sculpture. We will learn about the harvesting and processing of the plants so that students will leave with information about gathering what grows near them to use in future projects.

This class is appropriate for all skill levels, no prior weaving experience is necessary. This class is also great for those who have experience with weaving and are looking to increase their weaving vocabulary.

Participants will leave with a woven sculpture that will be unique in size, shape and composition.

Tuition is $145 and includes all materials. Full or partial scholarships are available!

For more information and registration: visit the Hoffman Center for the Arts Website: Hoffmanarts.org

Our Cause

Swimming is a life skill that opens doors to physical fitness, water safety, and recreational enjoyment. The new Aquatics Center will provide a valuable resource for learn-to-swim lessons, first responder training, water sports, warm water therapy, and community gatherings, fostering a healthier and more connected community.

How Funds Will Be Used

Funds raised will be used to complete construction of the new 6-lane pool, a modern therapy pool featuring safe zero-entry floors, an eco-friendly building with glu-lam mass timber beams as well as water and energy-saving systems, an ecologically beneficial site featuring native plants for the Oregon Coast, new public spaces, and an expanded team of skilled aquatics professionals.

Please join us for an informational presentation and organizational meeting about Ranked Choice Voting this Saturday at 2pm at the NCRD in Nehalem. The meeting will be in the Fireside Room. The interactive presentation will be adaptive to the specific questions and concerns of those in attendance. After discussing the pros and cons of RCV, those who are interested will transition to exploring options for local action within Clatsop and Tillamook Counties. Organizing in support of the Oregon Ranked-Choice Voting for Federal and State Elections Measure which will be on the ballot this November? Attempting to qualify a similar ballot measure for our local county elections? There are many ways we can take local action regarding this important issue.

REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot at a repair table: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

There are only about 100 “repair cafés” in the US and ours is among them! Lots of rural areas have fixit folks, but we are pretty lucky out here on the coast to have a Repair Cafe! Our talented repair volunteers are willing to share their knowledge and skills to reduce waste and save you money!

Here are some examples of the fun registrations we see AND FIX!
Reclining Chair – Spring has sprung.
Heater – Light turns on but nothing happens.
Boom Box – Belt to play cassette tapes needs to be installed but I can’t figure out where it goes. I took the old one out without taking pictures.
Toaster – Only one side toasts.
Vacuum – Suction is mostly gone.

Recognize any of these frustrations? REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot at a repair table: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

Native Plant Sale this weekend!

Come peruse our remaining inventory at the nursery in Tillamook on Saturday, April 13th. We have evergreen huckle berry, cascara, red-osier dogwood, sitka spruce and more remaining!

The plants at our facility are cultivated from seeds hand-harvested locally along Oregon’s North Coast. This makes them uniquely adapted to thrive in our coastal ecosystems. Native plants play a critical role in restoring habitats to create cleaner water and better habitat for fish, birds, pollinators, and people. Check out our new website page for details.

For the last decade, nursery staff and volunteers have used a temporary porta-john as their only bathroom. Funds from this sale will get us closer to building a hygienic, sustainable, universally accessible bathroom that is more accommodating of the many body types, ability levels, and genders that are welcome at the nursey.

As a “Surplus Plant Sale” all inventory is limited and typically sells at a rapid pace!
